Мы можем помочь вам с этим вопросом, но для открытия счёта вам нужно прибыть в Бангкок.

Банки Таиланда значительно ужесточили правила, и сейчас открыть счёт по визе TR или при безвизовом въезде стало очень сложно.

Sure. Where are you now? If outside of Thailand then probably best to apply for a non O visa prior to coming in order to get a Thai bank account.

if you meet the financials can be done yourself. If you need a bank account can be done through agent for Non O visas.
